A More Affordable Higher Education
Many schools say they are committed to making a college education more affordable. At Mansfield University, we’re actually doing something about it. We’ve lowered our tuition pricing for the 2019-20 academic year. We’ve also lowered our on-campus housing rates and added additional room options for our students. You can see the details in the table below. Keep in mind that these prices are before financial aid awards are applied. Most of our students are eligible for scholarships, merit awards, or other institutional aid that reduces the cost even further. At Mansfield University, we take pride in making our high value education more affordable for our students and their families.

You may register for courses offered in the fall, spring, and summer sessions and may either audit the class or take it for credit. You will be asked to complete a Senior Citizen Tuition Waiver form (click here) requiring proof of benefits (copy of monthly check or statement from the Social Security Office). Since only tuition is waived, you will be charged miscellaneous fees associated with the number of credits requested. The Senior Citizens Tuition Waiver is only for Non-Degree seeking, undergraduate courses and does not cover graduate courses or degree seeking students.
